$100 Checking Account Bonus at NVE Savings Bank in New Jersey - Local Only

NVE Savings Bank is offering a $100 bonus for opening its free personal checking account and for establishing direct deposit. The offer is listed in this bank's promotions page as of 9/27/2011. Below is the offer's small print:

To receive the $100 bonus, a checking account must be opened and a direct deposit must be directed to the account within 60 days of the account opening. $100 bonus will be credited to the account after the first direct deposit is made. Minimum to open account and obtain bonus is $10. Account must remain open for six months or the bonus amount will be withdrawn from the account. Available on Free Personal Checking Accounts only.

One nice thing about this offer is the checking account is free with no monthly service charge.
